(Sorry for the blurry pic...it was taken with my phone)We finally got our tree up and decorated! In our eleven years of marriage, we have never been this late putting up our tree. Life has been busy...really busy! Regardless, it's up now and I love it!
When I was growing up, my mom would always hang the most beautiful ornaments at the top of the tree. I always thought that the top section of a tree was to be reserved for the most beautiful and treasured of ornaments, this was so that everyone could see them and see how special they were. It wasn't until I was much older, that I realized that this "tradition" only came out of my mom's desperation to keep the breakable ornaments out of the curious grasp of small children. Even so, to this day, I can't decorate my own tree any other way! As per "tradition", my most beautiful and treasured ornaments will always grace the sacred top section of the tree, reserved ONLY for such ornaments! Because it just isn't the same any other way! :)
